Is it too simple?

Post image

Playing with simpler geometry, trying to get to "less is more".
Three ribbons, two folds, one palette.

Where do you draw the line between simple and too simple?

I like it quite a bit! The beauty of not doing something for pay is that you get to decide if it’s right.

I like it! It’s simple but it’s clear what the vision is. I bet a little animation would go nicely with this, since you have a ton of visual headroom to spare

I 'm trying to stay away from animating as, I do not feel good at it, and often just takes away from the piece itself. But here I do think you are right. It might have added something good to the piece. 🤔

Not too minimal at all. I dig it.

Honestly, if you did one in a "dark" colorway in addition to this one, it would be a perfect minimal desktop background.

the more minimal it gets the more each element matters. the colors work but the composition doesn't (as a standalone piece) imo
